October 25, 1926 to March 18, 2017
It is with heavy hearts we announce the passing of our father Rudolph Noel on Saturday, March 18, 2017 at the Whitemouth Personal Care Home at the age of 90. Rudy passed away peacefully with his children by his side.
Rudy was predeceased by his loving wife of 62 years, Jeanne Noel (Schatkowsky); his parents Gustav and Louise Noel; his siblings Bill Noel, Minnie Liske (Edward), Lydia Malkoske (Adolph), Tillie Malkoske (Fred), Gus Noel (Jutta), Henry Noel (Louise) and Edward Noel.
To mourn Rudy’s passing are his children Sherril Malkoske (Russell), Rod Noel (Kathy), Terry Lawrence and Kathy Bonin (Keith); his grandchildren Joel (Kathy), Kyle, Travis (Tanis), Cory (Alison), Terry (Nancy), Jeff (Sally), Mike (Linda), Holly (Jeff), Mandy, Meghen and Chantelle; his great grandchildren Emma, Maggie, Eric, Lucas, Shonah, Brina, Wesley, Jonah, Tabea and Finn; and his sister in-law Myma Noel. Rudy also leaves behind many Schatkowsky family members, nieces, nephews and friends.
Rudy was born on the Noel family farm north of Seven Sisters Falls on October 25, 1926. After the farm was flooded by the Seven Sisters Dam, the Noel family relocated to Oldenburg in 1931. He attended the Oldenburg school until he completed grade 7 and then began to work full time on the family farm. Rudy met the love of his life, Jeanne, and they were married on July 13, 1950. Shortly after, the newlyweds settled in Whitemouth to start their family.
Rudy was well known for his hard work ethic, working with Casey Shows and a variety of construction jobs that took him away from home. In 1957, Dad began working for the RM of Whitemouth where he spent many years as a dragline, grader and snow plow operator, until his retirement in 1986. From 1965 to 1983, Dad and Mom owned and operated the West End Store in Whitemouth.
Over the years, Dad was always there to lend a helping hand, from maintaining the skating rink to fixing bicycles. He also enjoyed fishing, puzzles and playing cards. A man of many talents, he took up the art of wood carving in his later years and has given many of his carvings to family and friends. During the past couple of years, Rudy was often seen riding through town on his scooter. Rudy was a lifelong member of the Redeemer Lutheran Church in Whitemouth and was an active member in his community.
The family would like to thank the wonderful staff at the Whitemouth Personal Care Home and Dr. Papetti for all of the compassion and care they gave to our Dad during his time in their care.
A memorial service will be held for Dad on Friday, March 24 at 2:00 p.m. in Whitemouth at the Redeemer Lutheran Church. Following the service, coffee and a light lunch will be served at the Whitemouth Community Centre. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Dad’s name to the Whitemouth Redeemer Lutheran Church or a charity of your choice.
